Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Comedy Central. Coming to you from New York City, the only city in America. It's the Daily Show. Tonight, Seapak's Weird Weekend, Senator Tim Scott, and Natalie Emanuel. This is the Daily Show with Trevor Noah. What's going on, everybody. Welcome to the day shop, Trouble No. Thank you so much for tuning in. Thank you for coming out in question. Thank you for being here. Thank you so much for being here. Good to see you.
Starting point is 00:00:49 Take a seat, everybody. We have got a super fun show for you tonight. It is jam-packed. Donald Trump wishes he was here to tell the or worst president in history. Plus, Republican Senator Tim Scott is joining us on the show. And Natalie Emanuel is here to talk about her brand new movie. So let's do this, people. Let's jump straight into today's headline. Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:11 All right. Before we get into the big stories, let's catch up on a few other things that are going on in the world. First up, some international news. New Zealand may be getting a new name. Yes. Yeah, Maori politicians have launched a campaign to restore one of the country's original names. Our Taroa, right? Yeah, and... I think we can all be honest, like, they didn't put a lot of thought into naming it New Zealand in the first place.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Yeah, colonizers were so late. This is New Zealand, there's New England, New York. Zero effort. It's like Pete Davidson calling his next girlfriend, New Kim, terrible. It's not going to work. Meanwhile, in health news, officials in New York say that hundreds of people in the state may be infected with polio because so many people are unvaccinated. Yeah, so I guess New York is back, back in the 1950s.
Starting point is 00:02:14 And you know, I'll be honest with you, I don't care anymore. Yeah, I don't. Polio, you want to come for me? Come. You're going to have to fight for space in my body with with with with with with with with with to to to to to to to tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho to to tho tho to tho tho tho to to to to tho. tho. to tho. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. thooooooooooooo. too. to to to to to come for me? Come. Come. Yeah, you're going to have to fight for space in my body with COVID and Monkey Park. Just going on. Just go at it. Just go at it hard. Oh, and in politics, in politics, according to a new book about the Trump White House, President Trump complained that his national security team wasn't loyal enough to him saying, quote, why can't you be like the German generals in World War II?
Starting point is 00:02:50 Yeah, that's right. Fox News was out there every day, like, these liberals are so over the top, always comparing Trump to Hitler. Meanwhile, Trump was going, why won't people treat me more like Hitler? Why not? Why not?
Starting point is 00:03:04 And it actually got even Why won't people treat me more like Hitler? Why not? Why not? And it actually got even more alarming than that. Later in the same meeting, he told his generals to find the arc of the government before Indiana Jones got his hands on it. Now I'm joking, but that's not even the real story. So this is the crazy part. After Trump went off about how his generals should be as loyal as Hitler's were, General Kelly's response to him was, you do know that they tried to kill Hitler three times and almost pulled it off.
Starting point is 00:03:34 And I don't know why, but I feel like that information didn't change Trump's opinion of the German generals. Like knowing Trump, he was probably like, those losers try to kill Hitler three times and they choked like a dog, like a duck, couldn't get it done. You know who was able to kill Hitler in the first try? Hitler. It's called leadership people. Leadership. But anyway, let's move on to some of the big and new stories of the day. Starting off with President Joe Biden, who had himself one hell of a weekend. First of all, he finally tested negative again for COVID and was allowed to leave quarantine for the first time in 18 days. Yeah, so he's back and as good as new or whatever he was when he went in. And 18 days is a long time in quarantine, but I'm sure he'll get right back into the
Starting point is 00:04:23 swing of things, you know?, because yeah, being president is a lot like, you know, riding a bike. Oh, Joe, no, don't do it! Don't do it! So, the good news for Biden is that he's now in the history books. The historic vote in the Senate. Major, major victory tonight for the Democrats and for our planet. This morning, Democrats triumphant. Every member of my caucus is elated about what happened because we've really, we've changed the world in a way that you rarely get an opportunity to do that. Passing a sweeping climate, health care, and economic package after 22 straight hours of
Starting point is 00:05:06 dusk to dawn work over the weekend. Vice President Kamala Harris casting the tie-breaking vote for Democrats to pass the bill, which boasts climate spending and billions in energy investments. Also reducing prices of prescription drugs by letting Medicare negotiate directly with pharmaceutical companies. A major legislative victory for Democrats in Congress and for the Biden White House. Suddenly, he is one of the most consequential legislative president since LBJ in his first two years in office.
Starting point is 00:05:32 Yeah, don't look now, people, but all of a sudden, Sleepy Joe has himself a pretty fat stack of accomplishments. Yeah, in just the past few weeks, he'll have done lower prescription drug prices, the biggest investment in green energy ever, health care for veterans exposed to burn pits, investment in computer chip production, and he kept the leader of Al-Qaeda while he was sunbathing. Think about it.
Starting point is 00:05:57 This is insane. You realize what this means. If he keeps this up, his approval rating is going to shoot all the way up to like 39%. And he he this he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he this this this th th th th. He th. He th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thoom. thoom. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. t t t t thi. thi. thi. If he keeps this up, his approval rating is going to shoot all the way up to like 39 percent. And he did all of this with COVID. I bet right now the White House doctors are trying to figure out how to give COVID back to the president again. Come on, guys. If we get infected, maybe he'll end the war in Ukraine. And by the way, I know this is weird, but, have you noticed that Joe Biden seems to be the most successful whenever he disappears? No, I know it's weird, but like during the campaign, right? He went and he hit in the basement and nobody saw him for months.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Everyone was like, where's Joe Biden? And then out of no way, they were like, they announced that he was the president, yeah, I guess. What? Me? Then now, gas prices, crazy. Congress, stuck, inflation, wild. Joe Biden gets COVID, disappears into the basement again. And then when he comes out, they tell him that not only is he still the president, he is now one of the greatest presidents in the history of presidents.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Gas prices went down, Congress is getting things done. The choc-taco is coming back from the Dan? I don't know what's in that basement. But whatever it is, it's working. In fact, I want that basement to be president. Basement 2024. And by the way, it's not like this bill was easy for Biden to get. Remember that. Because it's a 50-50 Senate, right?
Starting point is 00:07:21 The Democrats can't afford to lose a single vote. So first, they spent a year convincing Joe Manchin to get on board. And he was like, look, I'll back your climate change stuff, but only if you let me squeeze baby seals to see if there's oil inside. And the Democrats were like, sure, yeah, yeah, whatever. But then at the last minute, they had to convince Kristen Cinema. And she was like, OK, I'll sign on. But, but only th. But th. But th. But th. But th. But the the the th. But th. the the the th. the the th. th. the the th. the th. the th. the th. the the th. the the th. th. the the the th. th. th. they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they's they's. they's. they's. they's. they's. they's. they's. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. the. the. the. theean. tea. tea. tea. tea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. the to convince Kristen Cinema. And she was like, okay, I'll sign on. But only if you let me squeeze hedge fund managers to see if there's campaign donations inside. And I guess it worked. So let's move on.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Because no matter what you think about Joe Biden's accomplishments, we can all agree that he stole the election in 2020. Yeah, it was a landslide victory for Donald Trump, but sneaky Joe Byron hacked into the Matrix and turned all the voting machines, Black! No one denies this. And on January 6th, a group of Patriots tried to explain all of this to Mike Pence's neck. But instead of listening, the US government has been throwing them in jail. They've been locked away in those cold cells ever since with only their fur hats to keep
Starting point is 00:08:25 them warm. So over the weekend, over the weekend, conservatives gathered in Texas, all right? To raise awareness for just how badly the January 6th riders are being treated. And the way they did this was they held a very special tribute that is very moving and not at all hilarious. The insurrection fallout is front and center at CPAC. This year's most buzzed about booth is this, a fake jail cell. What you're watching actually happened at CPAC. It features a convicted January 6 rioter doing performance art in a cage wearing an orange jumpsuit. Visitors were offered headsets so
Starting point is 00:09:09 they could listen to interviews with jail January 6th defendants while watching the actor weep. Some viewers wept along with him. Others threw money into the cage. Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green entered the cell to pray with him. Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait. Wait, okay, just wait. Help me understand the logic. Marjorie Taylor Green is praying for a fake prisoner.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Help me understand the logic. Marjorie Taylor Green is praying for a fake prisoner? No, this is a real thing. Green is praying for a fake prisoner? No, this is a real thing. And she's like, serious. Who is this lady? Like, America, you understand, this is a person who's actually part of running your country. She's in there mourning with a fake, praying for...
Starting point is 00:09:58 Like, how does she function in the world? It's a fake prisoner? She must have the hardest time at Broadway shows. They killed Hamilton! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Starting point is 00:10:09 I mean, I guess in her defense, this actor in the lobby of the CPAC Conventional really commits it to the role? Because apparently, he spent hours in that jail cell weeping, the whole time, just weeping. Which in a way is a powerful performance art, because isn't that what conservatism has turned to in America, right? It's just people in mega hats acting like their victims. There's fewer white people now than they used to be. But we still have all the power. Oh!
Starting point is 00:10:39 Oh! By the way, the part that made me laugh the hardest was how people were throwing money into the cage. Like, what is that? What is that? It's like the only way they know how to interact with art is the same way they interact with strippers, you know? Just like, your freedom has been stolen from you. Shake that ass.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Just shake that ass. Now, you would think a story like this couldn't get any crazier. But truly, the best part of the story is this actor who played the defendant was an actual rioter on January 6th, who reportedly avoided a prison sentence by snitching on the other rioters. Yeah, so just so you understand, this dude is pretending to be a prisoner that he helped send to prison.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Which is insane, you snitched on your fellow rioters. They go to jail, and now you're out in the streets and claim, man, I wish there was something I could have done to stop them from going to jail. I wish there's something I could have done. This is wild. All right, let's move on to some major services out there these days people. It's just too much. There's Hulu, there's Netflix, there's, you know, prime video, Apple TV Plus, Disney Plus. It's getting out of hand.
Starting point is 00:12:09 It's getting out of hand. Especially when Paramount Plus gives you everything that you need. You know, there's Champions League, there's Ruppose, drag race. There's the daily show, there's the Star, the Star, the Star, the Star, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, it's, it's, their, their, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, th..s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s.s. their. their. th. their.a.a.a.a. It's getting. th.a. It's getting out. It's getting out. It's getting out out. It's getting out. It's getting out. It's th. It course the Daily Show, what else do you need? So yes, there are way too many services, but luckily soon there's going to be one less. Soon you'll get a two-for-one deal on streaming. HBO Max and Discovery Plus will merge next year. Subscribers will have various options between HBO's scripted entertainment and discoveries's reality-based programming. It comes as HBO Max struggles with performance and customer issues. The CEO of Warner Brother says Discovery Plus
Starting point is 00:12:53 has better technology and will become the core of the new service. No, no, no this is enough. How many times is HBO gonna change this name? Huh? It was HBO Go and then it was HBO now and it's HBO max? that. that, no, thi. th. th. th's th. thi. thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi.

What? Ha ha ha ha ha? So yeah, Warner Brothers, Discovery and HBO are merging everything into one giant company. I know that's gonna be weird, but I for one cannot wait to see how all of these biggest shows combine.

Right? Apparently you can get a lot done with COVID. I mean, me, I'm crushing this segment and I've got COVID too. You know what I'm saying? I'm just kidding.
Starting point is 00:15:39 I got polio, but let's get back to the charge. As a financial expert, I'm here to offer this, mergers are tricky. All right? What's the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most tha tha thia thia thia? I'm just dangerous thia. I'm just thia. I'm just thi. I'm just thia. I'm just thi. I'm just th. I'm just th. I'm just th. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.

I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. As a financial expert, I'm here to offer this. Mergers are tricky, all right? What's the most dangerous part of driving, right? Merging. I can't tell you how many times I've just plowed into people, right? What's the worst part of a birthday party? Merging separate groups of friends, you know? Work friends, college friends, is no different, okay?
Starting point is 00:16:06 Mergers, they're a lot like relationships, right? At first it's two single companies just having fun. You're like, hey, maybe we should have fun together, you know? Combine our assets, like a marriage. In fact, that's why it's called a merger, because merge sounds so much like MIRRGE. Okay? But next thing you know, after the merge, the arguing starts.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Are we HBO Discovery? HBO? How many subsidiaries are we going to have? Because I want one, but she wants three. Where are we going to spend the holidays? Why does Discovery Plus keep my best friend? And then, and that's th, th, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. thi. thi. that's th. thurge. thage.

Where are we going to spend the holidays? Why does Discovery Plus keep fucking my best friend, okay? And then that's when this happens, Trevor. Michael, I think you're getting off track.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Okay. Just, can you just give us the hot tip? You're right. Okay. Hot tip. Oh, yeah. Well, thank you so much for that. Michael Costa, everybody! You should get it checked out. Don't go away, because when we come back, Republican Senator Tim Scott, we'll be joining me right here on the Daily Show. My first guest is a Republican from South Carolina serving in the United States Senate. He's here to talk about his new memoir, America, a redemption story.

No, it really is, because you know, you've always been somebody who comes on the show and we talk about everything and I appreciate that. This time is a little different. You've written a book about your life. And honestly, there's a lot in this book
Starting point is 00:18:12 that I didn't know about you as a human being. You know, and let's start in the beginning. of how you got to where you got to today. Absolutely. Many people have referred to as many different things, the unicorn, you know, the lone black senator in the Republican Party. People have referred to you as the outlier. But what's really interesting in the book is you talk about how you got there with family who were also Democrats.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Talked me through that experience of what was like being in a family where people were voting differently? Absolutely. Well, I think the most important part of my story really is the devastation of divorce being raised by a single mom who worked 16 hours a day, three days a week, and eight hours a day, two days a week as a nurse's aid, just changing bedpans and rolling patients. So seeing my mother work her butt off to try to keep food on the table and then moving in with my grandparents, my grandfather born in 1921 in Sally, South Carolina, having to get off the sidewalk when white folks were coming. Just the humiliation and the devastation that he experienced and that passed down to my mother and then it impacted me too. Sometimes we forget to tell both sides of the story when we're having conversations. I wanted to make sure the people had a full perspective of my journey to becoming who I am
Starting point is 00:19:32 because much of it was built on the shoulders of shoulders of people who paid a very high price for you and I to have this conversation. And sometimes we forget to say thank you to those who went before us. right right right right. the shoulders the shoulders the shoulders the shoulders the shoulders the shoulders th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi tho tho and tho and thi thi thi. thi. thoes. thoes. thoes. thoes. th. th. th.

And tea. And, tea. And, tea. And, tea. And, tea. And, t before us. Right, right, right, on the shoulders of giants. I mean, absolutely. You know, it's interesting that you say telling all sides of the story because you talk about your father very early on in the book. Yes. And what I appreciate is how you talk about the negative impact he had on you, but you appreciate all of the positive as a positive as a positive positive as well as as as as as as as as as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as well as asive as well as well as asive as well as asive as well as asive as well as well as as of as well as as of as well as well as as of as well as as of as well as well as the as of as as of as well as as of as well as well as as of as well as well as as of as well as well as the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thiia thia thia thia thi as thi as thi. to to to to to to to to to to to to to tha thas. thau tha, tha. People spit at him. He doesn't get treated as a first-class citizen.
Starting point is 00:20:07 What impact did that have on you growing up, knowing this? You know, I learned a lot more about my father's story while I was writing the book. Truly, to tell you the truth, my father was not close for about 30s. After the divorce, we went in separate ways. And it was in my late 20s, early 30s when I first started getting back with him. Truth is that the more I understood about the pain and the misery and the devastation that happened during the Vietnam conflict for him,
Starting point is 00:20:35 as well as coming back as a black Vietnam veteran, very, very, very painful experience. And then the altercations that he had with other members of the service, just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just because because because because because because because because the the the their their their their, their, and their, and thi, their, and how thi, and thi, thi, thi, their, their, the their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi.a. thi. thi. thi. thi. thiii. thiiii. thii. thi. thi. thea. thea. thea. thea. the the the the altercations that he had with other members of the service just because he was black and how that painted and stained him and how that caused him to spiral some and being the recipient of that you see it differently as you grow older you get 2020 looking backwards and so my father is now a good man a solid man that I have much respect for and having walked that journey together has made me such a better person and it gives me a perspective that I would not have had have to have th have th have that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th. that that that that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thea. the. And thea. And thea. And thea. And that that thea.. And having walked that journey together
Starting point is 00:21:05 has made me such a better person. And it gives me a perspective that I would not have had and I'm not taking the time to listen. Because sometimes when we go through pain and suffering, we put our finger towards a person we think caused us that pain, and we literally turn our backs. I think sometimes the best thing we can't listen even to the people we feel like hurt us.
Starting point is 00:21:27 There's a scripture in Matthew 544 that's the love your enemies, to pray for those who persecute you. And I gotta say that South Carolina we've had more than our share, and I talk about Mother Emmanuel church shooting. Right. Those amazing people. Hmm. Those amazing people forgave the killer, the racist, who walked into the church, sat through a Bible study. And when you hear stories like that, and you understand the magnitude of their power to bring light into a dark place, the least I could do is learn to listen to people who may disagree with me. You've always done that.
Starting point is 00:22:08 You know, you've always had conversations with people you don't agree with. You've often faced criticism as well. You know, many people have said it to you in the nicest way. to you. You're today. theymeau. Look at what the Republican Party is doing. And some people haven't be be thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thoe. thoe. thoe. thoea. thoe. thi. thoea. thoe. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. I, tho. I, tho. I, tho. I, th. I, th. I, th.................................................................................................................................... And some people haven't said it to you in the nicest way. You talk in the book about how people call you Uncle Tim when you responded to the president's
Starting point is 00:22:31 address. How do you reconcile that narrative? How do you reconcile the conflict of being a black man in a party that is predominantly white, and black people are predominantly Democrats and saying, no no I can still believe in this and not be you know a race traitor which I don't I don't believe in in any way but I'm you know whichever I'm gonna break news here you ready you ready I'm ready I think the black community is a conservative community so I think I'm just being consistent with who I am let me give you a couple of examples of policy positions that I think the th the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi I thi I th thi I'm thi I thi I thi I thi I the I th th the th th the th th the th th th th th th th th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I thi I thi I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the thi a conservative community. So I think I'm just being consistent with who I am.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Let me give you a couple of examples of policy positions that I think the most people don't understand or appreciate or have ever even heard that while we were in the majority, for 2016 to 2020, we invested more money in historically black colleges and universities than any other time in American history. We made the funding for HBC use permanent for the first time in American history. We put a billion dollars in the middle of the pandemic specifically targeting HBCUs. My office, we led the charge on
Starting point is 00:23:42 sick-cell anemia research and passed legislation to make sure that it would be easier. Unemployment, 2016 to 2020, we have the lowest unemployment in the history of the country for African Americans, Hispanics, Hispanics, Asians, a 70-year low for women. We created 7 million jobs, 2 thirds were African Americans and Hispanic. So, but my point is that when you think about the policy positions that I have fought for, not to even talk about opportunity zones, the fact is that as a sitting conservative Republican, I fought for those issues that had the greatest impact in the communities where I come from
Starting point is 00:24:22 because it's like common sense. But here's the thing that I find interesting. And by the way, you're not an outlier in thing thing thing to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to the to the to to the to to to the to to their to to to their their their their their not to to their not to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their not their not their not their not their not the the the the the the the their their the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the the. the the the. the. the the the. the the the. the th sense. But here's the thing that I find interesting. And by the way, you're not an outlier in doing this. I find it interesting to see how American politicians choose to measure time or effect. Because what you said was true, the 2016 to 2020. There was a man by the name of Barack Obama who was president up until 2016. And as you know, in economics, effects can take a while right? Absolutely. I've heard of the name right? Yes. Right and so no I answer the thing. I don't think I don't think I'm you know I and you know
Starting point is 00:24:54 we've had conversation we have accusing you of betraying anybody I'm not accusing of I think sometimes what becomes confusing for people is how it it seems like the Republican Party and conservatives at large seem to have an idea of you know victimhood. Let's put it this way. So I'll see people saying oh we're sick and tired of people talking about racism, that's over. We're sick and tired of people talking about oppression, that's over. Minorities need to do right? But what it seems like, and you'll tell me how you see it is, it seems it is, it is, it seems like, it seems, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to thi, to be to be to be to to be to be to be to be, to me, to me, to to to to the to the to to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be to be to be to be, to be to be to be their, the the the the the the the the their, their, is, their, is, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thii. thea. thea, thea, thea, thea, too, their, to me, to be tell me how you see it is, it seems like oftentimes in order for people of color to be accepted into the Republican Party, they have to ignore
Starting point is 00:25:33 all of the systemic things that happen to them in the country, and then the people who are in the Republican Party go, we're the victims, we're the real people being oppressed, we're being oppressed, this is what's actually happening because we are white. And the people and the people and the people and the people and the people and the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. And the people. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. And th. And th. And th. And, thi. And, thi. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. te. the. the. te. the, the, the we're being oppressed, this is what's actually happening because we are white. And I find that, do you not find that there's a weird disparity at times? I hear what you're saying, but can I point out one thing? Of course. Do you all mind? Okay. Ooh. Don't ask a question you don't know the answer to the people, you don't know. My bad. In my book? Yes. One thing you'll learn very quickly, I don't sidestep the issue of race at all. You don't. That's why I said with you, I agree with that, right?
Starting point is 00:26:13 And I talk about the 20 plus times that I've been stopped in the last two decades for just driving while black. I talked about the race riot that happened at the high school I was going to attend when I was in the eighth grade. I talked about the challenges that so many people in our community has faced because of the color of our skin. Right. I talk about the economic realities. I talk about the justice system.
Starting point is 00:26:40 So the truth of the matter is that I think you have to be comfortable in your own skin wherever you are. And if you have to betray or deny a part of your existence, don't do it. And I refuse to allow any party affiliation to stop me from being what I'm going to be when I leave and what I was before I came. And you do that, I will say, you do that honestly. Beyond just black. You talk about this in the book the book the book the book the book the book the book the book the book the book the book the book the book th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi, for thi, for thi, for thi, thus, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th and th and th and th and th and th and thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, that, threat, that, threat, or threat, threat, or threat, or threat, or threat, or threat, threat, or threaten, or that, I will say, you do that honestly, yeah, beyond just black. You talk about this in the book, for instance. You know, you were one of the senators who said, Donald Trump and trying to overturn the election, what he did was unconstitutional. You know, you talk about January 6th. I feel like even in the book when you're telling the story of January 6th, you do a really good job of placing the blame at the feet of the people who conducted the insurrection. It seems like there is a looming absence though, you know, it's glaring absence of Trump's name in it. It seems like at times you are, you know, and I don't mean it in a bad way
Starting point is 00:27:36 at all, but it seems like you are trying to thread the needle of saying what happened but then not saying why it happened. Well, well, does that make sense? Yeah, it does. That's it. Yeah, tell the truth. Praise the Lord. Yes, yes. I like that. So it is called the Daily Show with Trevor Noah and not Tim Scott. So I assume the audience is going to go with you. No, no, no, no, I'm being funny. I'm being funny. I'm I'm with that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. I'm that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that that that. that that that that. that. that. that that. Does, does does does. Does, does does. Does, does does. Does, does does does does. Does, does does does does does. Does, does does does does does. Does, does does. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. It is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, does, does, is, is, does, is, does, is that. that. that going to go with you. But here's, but here's, I'm being funny. I'm with you. I mean, I know you're a comedian, I'm trying my best, you know, I'm working, give a brother break, right?
Starting point is 00:28:11 I'll give you all the break, you know, you know that, yes. Here's my point though. I was actually in the building. And you, yeah, you talking you Rolling my sleeves up, preparing to fight for my life. So when I put the blame on the people who were coming after me, I put the blame squarely where I believe it belongs. And that's what you hear in my recount of the issue. When I say that at the end of that day on January the 6th, we, the United States,
Starting point is 00:28:41 both Republicans and Democrats, went back out and performed our duty to affirm to to to the to the the the the States Senate, both Republicans and Democrats, went back out and performed our duty to affirm that President Biden has won the election. We did our job. So I'm not actually sugar-coding or skirting or pivoting away from an issue. I'm actually not making it more political than it has to be. But let me ask you this. Certainly. Okay. Many people have floated the idea. And I'm not asking about everybody. And my mom would say I'm not asking you this. Certainly. Many people have floated the idea. And I'm not asking about everybody. And my mom would say, I'm only asking about you right now. Uh-uh, uh-uh.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Uh-huh. I would like to know then. If you were asked to run as Donald Trump's vice president, would you accept that? That's a good question. I would say, uh-huh. I'm going to pivot. At least you're honest. Okay. Let me take one. Here's the truth.
Starting point is 00:29:32 When you're up for re-election to the United States Senate, the first goal is to win. So once you win, then you look at the options that are left and make a decision on what is possible. And so for me, at this point in my career, the only thing I'm asking for are the people in South Carolina to give me a chance to be re-elected. Right, and they do love you, you served your state well. You know, you talk about your beginnings in the book and you talk about the commitment that you have to your country and people, people admired people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people the the the the the th,
Starting point is 00:30:03 the commitment that you have to your country and people admired in the way that you've served, whether they agree with you or not. Talking about South Carolina though, I would love to know how you see the state and its positioning as it pertains to some of the issues facing America today, one of the biggest being abortion. For many, many years, people said Roe v. Wade was settled. People saw the Supreme Court flip in a way that some senators evenets is the Senate is the Senate is the Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate Senate, the Senate, the Senate, the Senate, thiu, thi, to, to, thi, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, thi, thi, too, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I thi. I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I, I, I thi, thi, I thi, I's, I's, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, too, tooi, tooi.i.i.i.i.I'll tooooo.i.I'ma, too.I'ma, too. I'ma, I'ma in a way that some senators even felt betrayed. You know, I won't ask you to comment on the Supreme Court, you know, but what I will ask you to comment on is South Carolina as a whole right now, many senators, many lawmakers have said it's up to the states. Let the states decide. We see states are starting to decide. Kansas, Indiana, etc. South Carolina has a bill that is being discussed that would prohibit people from giving women information on getting an abortion even if
Starting point is 00:30:49 they were to do it in a state that did decide to still have it. So where do you stand on that issue then? Well I'll say I haven't read the legislation because I'm a United States Senator not a state senator so I don't have the information to answer. No no no I agree I understand you don't I the then I mean the then I mean I mean I'm then I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm th. I'm th. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I, I agree. I understand you don't want to comment on something. But then even... No, I mean, not, not that I think I'm going to ever satisfy your audience on this issue. No, no, no, no. But the truth is, though, that you're asking me about a bill, I have not even seen, nor have I... So then let me ask the decisions that they want to make? The answer is yes. Okay, so if they were restricting it, I'm not saying they are, if they were, right, then you would, you would not be for that. I think that people making a profound decision should have all the information,
Starting point is 00:31:35 pros and cons. Right. Let's talk about the journey to the presidency. I've been on the daily show show show tolipl. tol, tol, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, too, too, too, tho, tho, tho, tho, the tho, tho, thirty, thirty, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, tho, thin, tho, tho, tho. tho. tho. tho. thooooo. they. they. they. they. they. th. tho, their, their,to the presidency. I've been on the daily show for a few years now, and there's something I've noticed, and that is when people write memoirs, it generally means, it generally means, it generally means, that they might be eyeing a run at the presidency. So, with 2024 coming up, I know you've been asked this in many, many different ways. I'm not going to ask you, would you run, would you not run? You're going to tell me, well, Trevor, right now we just got to focus on the midterms and you're the most important things.
Starting point is 00:32:15 I know that. I know that. Actually, I wasn't going this then, rather. Yes, sir. What would you do differently if you were elected president of the United States? What would you do differently from a Donald Trump presidency? What would you do differently from a Joe Biden president? What is the difference that you would bring?
Starting point is 00:32:40 I honestly think that the, A, America is the greatest country on earth, we are the, we are the solution, not the problem. If we are going to focus our attention on making America a better country, I think they, all three of your people up there, I really appreciate them. I think it's just in the moment people are struggling. In the moment people are for whatever reason. So, if I were going to set an agenda, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, their, their, their, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, is, is, is, is, is, is. to. to. to. to. to, is, is, to. to, to. to, to, to. to, to. to, to, I. to. to, I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I, I. I. I. I. I. I. I, I. I. I. I. I. to be. to be. to be. to. the to. to. to. to. the the toe. toe. too. too, I'm, I'm, toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. to. to. to. to. to. the the first thing I would do is I would focus on the poor zip codes in this country need really high quality education. I agree. If that's something I went to four different elementary schools by the fourth grade. I am serious about equipping our parents with all the options they need and improving the quality of our public education.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Rather, that's here in New York City, the Success Academy does a fantastic job, or in Charleston we have one of the top 50 public high schools in all of the country. So there's a way for us to be able to provide great incentives for our kids to continue along the path to a better education. Is that your way of saying privatizing education?. I I I I I I I I I I I I I the then. No. No. No, I then, I then, I then, I then, I then, I then, I then, I the the thi thi the, I thi thi thia, I tho, I the, I'm the, I thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus the, or the, or the, or the the, or the thus thus thus thus thus thus the the the the the the the thaten the thaten thaten thatena the the the the the thata the the the the the the the the path to a better education. Is that your way of saying privatizing education? I don't know if you're saying that. Let me say it differently. Because this is the thing I've noticed in America.
Starting point is 00:33:52 And in the book, just to go back to the book, what I do like is that you talk about the impacts that education made both negatively and positively in your life, you know where it impacted you. And there's something I did notice in the book is your journey cannot be separated from the journey that America had. You cannot separate it from a world where America believed in investing in America, where it wasn't a, oh those kids can choose those charter schools or those systems or those, you know what I'm saying? It seemed like this was, you're a product of that world. And we spend $760 billion as a country on public education, K through 12. But teachers are still broke. Listen, we, listen, if you're, yes?
Starting point is 00:34:29 So, and your point is a good one. So that we, in Department of Education, in Washington, D.C., the average employee at the department of education makes over $100,000 a year where the teacher does not. So should we take some of the money that we're spending in Washington, D.C. and give it back to the state so that they can provide more money for teachers? Well, but boy, you could just take it away from wars. Or, yeah, that's good. I would disagree. You know, I would say without any question, if you look at the breakdown of our of our budget around the country you would see that we're spending 760 billion dollars yeah 750 cents a five on education we spend about 670 actually something now
Starting point is 00:35:12 but 800 billion dollars on to their discretionary defense we spend about a trillion one point one trillion dollars on Social Security about 800 billion dollars on Medicare about 600 or so on Medicaid. So our domestic spending rivals any of the place on earth. So it's not that we can't walk and chew gum. It's not that we can't provide for the primary defense of this nation and fund education. The truth is in South Carolina and around the country, some of the poorest performing schools have about $24,000 per student. One of the blessings of this area in New York City is a charge school is a success
Starting point is 00:35:49 academy very similar to what we have in Charleston meetings read academies where you're seeing for less than half of the current student the current student expenditures you can get high quality education for the average student in the average place without privatizing it. And oh by the way, I still support all choice. I mean, whatever it takes to improve education, I am for. All choice for.
Starting point is 00:36:15 Oh, no, I'm not going to clip that. I know where you stand. Before I let you go, there is a... You're pretty good at this job. Thank you. Well, I appreciate you stand. I know where you stand. Before I let you go, there is a... You're pretty good at this job. Thank you. No, I appreciate you coming. I really do. And you're discerning and your hearing. And your directional and your questions. I like this. I try. I try.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Yeah, you do what you understand. It's, you know, what I do enjoy in the book is that it reminds me that you are a human being. I don't need to agree with you on everything to believe that you are a human being. And you talk about that in the book, you talk about the way people see you, the way you see people you don't agree with. One of the more touching parts of your book is when you talk about going to vote for your grandfather for him to vote for him to vote. Yes. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho that that, tho tho tho tho tho th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And the. And the. And the. And thea. And to to to thea. thea. thea. the. tha. tha. the. the. th. th 2008 and he was going to vote for Barack Obama. Absolutely. And one of the volunteers at the polling station didn't trust that you would like let him vote because your grandfather couldn't read, is that correct? Correct. Yeah, so it's one of the most touching stories about my grandfather I could ever share. Going back to 1921, fast forward in 2008, thinking about a black man born in the deep
Starting point is 00:37:28 south with very, very few rights, if any at all. Living long enough to see this country evolve far enough for the possibility of an African-American being elected president of the United States. It was something he could not comprehend or imagine. So I take him to vote as I as I always have. We're walking into the voting booth and because he can't read. I always went into the booth with him which is the way that we do it and the young lady at the counter didn't think me being a Republican. I was honored my grandfather's vicious. And I just thought to myself, how sad is it that what she thinks of the human condition is so off?
Starting point is 00:38:13 But my grandfather having 100% faith in me said, lady, please and thank you, shut up. And we went in there together. This is my grandson. Exactly. And so I said, Grand Day, I want you to, I want you to memorize my grandfather had almost a photographic memory. Right. And so I want you to, Barack Obama. I want you to remember those words.
Starting point is 00:38:32 So when you see it on TV, you know who you voted for. So there getting in the car I've seen my grandfather cry twice once was when my grandmother died April 29th 2001 and the second time was having the privilege and the responsibility of electing President Barack Obama. It's a really, really fantastic book because I think it gives so much more complexity to who you as a man. Thank you for joining me on the show. I appreciate you.
Starting point is 00:39:13 Not everyone comes in, chats with me, so I always appreciate you. Senator Scott's book, America, a redemption story is available right now.

And since then you got nominated for an Emmy for that role so congratulations. Thank you. Thank you so much. And that's when you were doing, the new show, that,. Thank you so much. It feels like your journey has just been you know it's just on the up you're enjoying yourself whether it's comedy with
Starting point is 00:40:34 its drama whether it's whatever this is like a thriller it's a thriller yeah it's it's terrifying yes you know I like to challenge myself and try my hand at everything. Watching this movie I was like, this is a terrible mistake that your character has made. Because we saw a little bit in the clip. She goes to like, you know, like a lavish event in England. Yeah, like a destination wedding with a long-lost relative who is a stranger and goes alone. I mean, no, like that was her first mistake. I always joke that if it was me in this situation,
Starting point is 00:41:10 that movie would have ended in the scene with my best friend who's like, are you gonna go meet him? And we'd be like, nah. And because no, like, yeah. If I got invited to a long-lost relatives event, and I get there, and then it's a bunch of people wearing masks Pulling out knives, I'd be like, yeah, this did not go as I intended. Yeah. This is not it. What I also found interesting was you are playing an American in the movie,
Starting point is 00:41:34 but then everyone in the... Is the English? Is that like super weird for you? Because it's like, English playing an American Natalie with English people. Do you find that there's like parts of Natalie that change? Like, are there, are there things like American Natalie does that English Natalie would never do? Um, I think American Natalie is probably a little more, she's probably a little louder to be honest. A little louder? Yeah, like, I don't mean that to sound like negative. No, no, no, no, it's fine. You you. You you. You you. You you. You, you. You, you. You, you. You, you. You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you're American, you're American. that, you, you, you, you're, that. that. that. that. that. that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that. that. that, that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that, that. that, that. that, that. that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that. that. that Americans allow it. You've said it now, that's it. You've said it now, Natalie.
Starting point is 00:42:05 But we love that. I love that. I think that sometimes, like, my Britishness, you know, often it's like, you know, you just keep it sort of. Yes, of course. Yeah, exactly. And I think there's a freedom that comes with that, I that, I that, I that, I that, that, that, that, I, that, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I tha, I tha, tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. I tha. I that that that that that that, I that, I that, I that, I that I see with Americans like they have no problem expressing their selves, expressing their opinions and I love that. I wish I had more of that so I try to adopt it myself, not always successfully but... No, I think you do a great job of it. I love seeing it in the character, I love seeing how you
Starting point is 00:42:35 change. Before I let you go, there's one change that we have to speak about and that's your hair, right? It looks gorgeous. Thank you. Thank you so much. I saw the video of you cutting your hair and it was really emotional. It was so emotional. Because we've known you with your hair for so long, it's become a part of you and people have even come up to you and said, like, thank you so much for having natural hair on on a TV show. Like, what made you decide? And not for a role, by the way, thoe, thoe, thoe, thoe, thoe, thiiii, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I's, I's, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I I I I I's, I I I I I I I I's, I I I I's, I I I I's, I's, I I's, I I I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm thi. And, I'm thi. And, I'm thin, I'm th. It's th. We's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thananananananananananan. I'm gonna cut it and not for a role by the way just for yourself it was for me I think it had taken I for many years I wanted to cut my hair and I always found a reason not to
Starting point is 00:43:14 and I think some of it was fear some of it was like oh you know to be what is femininity or beauty or whatever like often we kind of taught that you have to have long hair and it has to be a certain to be to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a the the the their. to be a to be to be to be to be to be to be their. their. their. their. their. their.

I'm. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. to. to. to. to. to. to. I'm. I often we kind of taught that you have to have long hair and it has to be a certain way. And I think I'd also, like there was a real pride in not changing my hair for the screen and on red carpets and doing glamorous looks with my natural texture and, you know, hair discrimination, all of that, it was a real kind of defiance that was in my hair and a celebration that was in my hair.
Starting point is 00:43:46 And so when I decided to cut it, I wanted to just shed it. I wanted to let go of all the sort of complex feelings, but you know, start fresh. And to be honest. I love it. Congratulations to you. You've inspired you. Now, maybe, I'm not going to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut to cut, to cut, to cut, to cut, to cut, to cut, to cut, to cut it, the the the the the the the the the to cut it, to cut it, the to cut it, to cut it. to cut it. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to cut, to cut, the tooomea. tooomea. tooomea. tooomea. today. toooomorrow. tooomorrow. tooomorrow. tooomorrow. tooomorrow, tooomorrow, to you.
